That ship has sailed. Al even posted pictures of his personal 2019 online. Not one of them of the front end

OHHH come on now Chevy. How can you do this to me?


At least I have time to decide on my next vehicle. Just need to decide how much I NEED that 3rd row seating or listen to the kids complaining because someone is touching someone.

Blazer does have that sliding 2nd row like 2nd gen Equinox/Terrain did so you can get the kids as far away from you as possible.

Where does this thing fit in the line up? Bigger than Equinox but smaller than Traverse?

Just don't drive at night, because that thing has no headlights

Yeah, but I still have to hear them argue.

I feel like Pontiac did it first with the Aztek.
Jeep has changed the front design for 2019 and in my opinion its much better.

I never thought anyone would adopt the design, but I was wrong. Now the new Hyundai Kona is doing it also and again I don't really care for it:



The Blazer seems to pull it off better.

I would say that Pontiac did it before Cherokee with the Aztek.

The Blazer pulls off the look because they made it look more like the headlights.

The Jeep Cherokee is horribly ugly. Makes sense Chevy benchmarked that look.

[Emoto]

I actually like how the Cherokee looks.

I’m not the only one not happy with this watered down use of an iconic nameplate:

What’s the ultimate goal of a design? To sell cars, or to help sell cars.
Who buys the cars? We (us), the customers.
And so? The opinion of us, the customers, is a valid point towards a design; just because most of us don’t have car design jobs, or work in marketing, does not invalidate our feedback.

It was a light comment to a light comment...

Ajá...

Nice...A Two door Blazer/Tahoe...lol.... looks very nice....(See next post....lol...) (Chevy has 5 other SUVs that are four doors...Would a two door version of the Blazer be that much of a sacrilege?...)

Perhaps Ford thinks a two door SUV has some merit also...

There is one segment that is STILL wide open that I wish GM would fill and that is the Full Size 2 door SUV.

Bring back the 2 door Tahoe. I know it won't happen... but I think it would sell very well..

And that sucks!

This is my daily driver. It's 20 years old and has 184,500 miles on the odometer. It's very reliable and IMHO is better built than my Camaro SS and Colorado ZR2. Now, gas mileage is another story, about 11 mpg no matter how I drive it.
